ADD.LIFE AND EXPLORE

Inspiration and information to help you take your first steps into the great outdoors

Being outside is about being yourself, with space to think, sit, walk, or run, breathing in clean air and feeling refreshed. Wherever you live on this small island, you’re not very far from beautiful, free open space. From parks to rugged remote hills, our cities and countryside provide the backdrop for enjoyment and adventure.
 
More and more people of all ages are realising just how good it makes them feel to be outside and active. But if you’re new to outdoor exploring, it can be a bit daunting. What do I need, where can I go? What do I wear? What if it’s cold, hot or rainy? You’ll find help and advice on these questions and more right here.
